139: Finding Hope in the Darkest Times: My Journey from Depression to Faith

In this episode of the Brave Co Podcast, I sit down with DJ Hernandez, a man whose powerful story of faith and resilience has touched thousands. DJ opens up about his journey through deep depression, a battle with suicidal thoughts, and how he found hope when he felt most abandoned. From his high school years of struggling to fit in to a life-changing experience at the beach, DJ shares how his faith helped him escape the spiral of despair.

Through the grace of God and the steadfast support of close friends, DJ’s story highlights the transformative power of community, honest conversations, and unwavering hope. We discuss the epidemic of depression and loneliness that grips so many young people today, diving into the devastating statistics on suicide and mental health. DJ’s message is simple yet profound: even in your darkest hours, you are not alone, and hope is closer than you think.

Whether you’re facing similar struggles or just want to be inspired, this episode is a reminder of the light that faith can bring to a broken world. Join us as DJ prays over the Brave Co community, sharing words of encouragement and strength for anyone in need.
